PHILADELPHIA — Executives who want a business degree now have a new option at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, which this month launched a “global” executive program offering 75% virtual and 25% in-person classes.
This is the first time the acclaimed business school has offered an executive MBA program that is mostly online class instruction. The program starts in May 2023, and costs $214,800, the same price tag as Wharton’s in-person MBA degree.
MBA education expert Eliot Ingram said Wharton’s new hybrid program could be a “game changer. They want to be a dominant player in this space.”
